If Southampton were to beat Town, they would earn their first back-to-back wins in the top division for a year and a half, having beaten Unai Emery's Arsenal in their last outing.

The Saints will be hoping to do just that in West Yorkshire in three days' time, with new boss Ralph Hasenhuttl looking to continue his honeymoon period after earning a win and a loss since joining the south coast club a fortnight ago.

Owen thinks the Austrian will be handed a first Premier League draw at the John Smith's this weekend, however.

In his weekly blog for BetVictor, the former Real Madrid forward wrote: "Huddersfield have only scored three times in their nine home league games so far this term, but I think they will get a point against a Southampton side looking for successive league wins for the first time since April 2017 following their 3-2 win over Arsenal on Sunday."

Elsewhere, Owen predicted Fulham to lose at Newcastle United, Manchester City to beat Crystal Palace and Manchester United to beat Cardiff City in Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's first match as Red Devils' boss.
